A red-hot cardio workout today -- the traditional Valentine's Day set for the Masters team that Barbara coaches. This workout takes about 60 minutes, and is great for a group of mixed-ability swimmers. It's also a good team builder. A Valentine's Day playlist is at the bottom. Share the love on V-Day!

These are not all-out, 100%-effort swims. You're aiming for your best time plus 10 to 15%. Examples of best times plus 10-15% can be found in the accompanying PDF file.
It's OK to switch strokes (and equipment) during the set, so long as the effort level is maintained. Example: Alternate 1 X 100 free with fins and 1 X 100 breaststroke with no equipment.
